My longtime barber and a former member in the Wehrmacht's Luftwaffe Paratrooper force had at many times been telling me about US troops during the Normandy landings and in the following 6 month - having worn camo-smogs and helmet covers.
The camouflage pattern was not that used by the USMC in the Pacific - but rather greenish leave patterns.
Just two day's ago I got to watch a war documentary - and yup, for the first time I saw a pattern that looked just as described by him. see photo
Does anyone have information as to what the US camo-fieldjacket or smog and trousers, looked like? and which or what US unit had been wearing these in France 1944.
Thanks
